Arachuvitta Sambar - Sambar with freshly ground masalas, very flavourful can be served as sidedish

for rice or even for idlis and dosas.

The word sambar brings back the memories of Coimbatore's Annaporna Sambar(a very popular hotel in

Coimbatore for its sambar which tastes out of the world) I havent tasted any sambar even close to

it. I am not a person who drench the idlis/dosa in sambar but when it comes to Annaporna sambar I m

no exception to it....I can even drink a cup of it ;) Am sure residents of CBE wud agree with

me...Even now when I go on a days visit to CBE, I make sure to go to the hotel however hectic the

schedule may be. They also sell their sambar powders but still we cant get the same taste as theirs.

If you ask me to write abt CBE I can go on and on....

I followed Lavi's recipe with my own modifications here and there and this arachuvita sambar was

very aromatic & flavourful becos of the spices blend into it. So coming to the archuvita sambar recipe

right away.

5.Allow it to boil for 5-7 mins till the sambar is thick and is of desired consitency.Add chopped

coriander leaves and switch it off.

My Notes:

Adding veggie is purely optional, you can make it without any vegetable too. As it uses

freshly ground spices, the sambar will be flavourful even without any vegetable.

Dont worry if your spice powder is not very fine. I usually make is slightly coarse only but

the sambar comes out well.

This looks better than any hotel sambar, and it has that ring to it with the "arachivita" prefix. As you s aid, the spice

blend is the key and that is what makes it special.BTW, I am back after a long break, and I hope I can catch up to

some o f your recipes.

PS, I like your blog background.

Hi,

I tried your recipe last night and it turned out to be great! I will no longer use store bought sambhar powder. Fresh

powder is easy and s uper flavorful. My hubby loved it. I had it with your peanut chutney and idlis. Thanks again for a

great recipe.
